Fang Xiao took the Jade Box, but said nothing.
The matter of Dao Vows had already been made clear—they simply would not be effective here.
Even if one swore an oath to the "Heart Sovereign," aside from granting wishes, it likely would not bother with anything else.
He did not understand why this person would go through such useless effort.
This person seemed to have seen Fang Xiao's confusion, but he had no intention of hiding anything and directly explained.
"Later, this old man will make a wish to the 'Heart Sovereign,' asking it to make the Dao Vow you swear effective."
"You can actually make such a wish? Aren't you afraid that after I leave, the Dao Vow will vanish just like the things in this place?"
This person's choice to make a wish in order to render the Dao Vow effective truly surprised Fang Xiao.
This method of wishing also gave him some new ideas.
If this person could succeed, then Fang Xiao could try to imitate him as well.
At that time, taking Qi Yunsheng away might no longer be a distant dream.
"That does stump this old man.
To be honest, even I cannot be certain of that.
However, I am certain that you would not dare violate the oath, young friend.
After all, whether it is punishment by tribulation from the Heavenly Dao or personal handling by the 'Heart Sovereign,' the consequences are not something you can bear."
Upon hearing this, Fang Xiao came to a sudden realization. This man was gambling.
He was betting that Fang Xiao would not dare break his oath.
And that was indeed the case.
No matter how good the item in this Jade Box was, Fang Xiao could not possibly violate an oath just to keep it for himself.
